I don't play games, so the memory situation is fine. I only wish it was upgradeable to 1 gig not 512 MB!
If you don't even game, what could you possibly need 1 Gigabyte of RAM for? Aside from major 3d rendering or video editing (professional film editing) I cna't imagine...and if you were into that a laptop would be a bad choice anyway.
This isn't directed at anyone here, but I think this "bigger is better" thing when it comes to RAM is gettign out of hand! Yes, more memory helps....but lets be real. 128MB is suitable, 256 is great....512 is overkill and 1 gigabyte is simply ridiculous!
